My mom really inspired me. She has always taught me it's not about us, it's about what we can give back.

My mom got me into some commercials, and I basically, I guess, just got out of my shell I was in at the time because I can't remember. I've just been blessed ever since.

Katie Holmes is really amazing.

One of my favorite traditions is that my sisters and I, we all wear the same pajamas. I've even still got some from when I was 6. Also, I'll always remember cooking together in the kitchen and that no matter how busy our schedules are, we are all together for Christmas.

I'm originally from Fort Lauderdale: that's my home town in Florida. So when I'm on location, I just get the packets from schools in Florida. And when I go to Florida, I go to Christ Church School.
I would love to have the honor to get to work with Meryl Streep. I love her and I love her work.

I'm very, very blessed.

I honestly don't even know how I got into acting. It happened so quickly because my mom and sister used to do commercials, and apparently when I was little I would unbuckle myself from the stroller and crash their auditions.

I love South Florida; this is where I am from, so I don't think there is anything more rewarding than knowing that where you grew up is standing behind you and supporting you.

I did Bridge to Terabithia (2007) when I was around 6 years old, but for my first movie, I was 5.

I want to be the coolest aunt in the entire world.

Work is so much fun that it doesn't really seem like downtime when I'm not. But cooking, spending time with my family, friends and dog are what I'm usually doing when I'm not working on something.

There is a reason for everything.

What do I love about acting? I love traveling, meeting new people, exploring and just doing what I love.

God has just given me such an amazing journey and able to play; it's been so much fun. I'm having a blast!
